Template:FFIX multi Enemies Baku is a boss in Final Fantasy IX. He is fought twice in the game, the first time in disguise as the Masked Man.
Strategy
First Battle
Baku wearing the Dragon Mask.
Wearing a hood and called the Masked Man, Baku is the first battle fought in the game, and is faced by Zidane, Blank, Marcus, and Cinna in the Cargo Room of the Prima Vista.
His Gwahaha! attack is the strongest, while Oww! results in Baku tripping and missing his target. The Masked Man has a Mage Masher to be stolen, a weapon upgrade for Zidane.
For this battle, a game over is impossible, as the game continues even if the party is annihilated.
Second Battle
After Princess Garnet is kidnapped by the Prison Cage, Zidane decides to take Vivi and Steiner to look for her. Zidane has to fight Baku to be allowed to leave Tantalus.
Zidane should defeat him with only physical attacks and use Potions should his HP become low.
The Iron Sword weapon for Steiner can be stolen from him, making the boss battle with Plant Brain much easier.
